July, July!

"July, July! July, you never seemed so strange" - The Decemberists "July, July!"

I don't make it a habit of sharing our social calendar on these pages. I'm making an exception right now because next month is shaping up to be the busiest ever for OWTK.
Much of the activity is centered around kid's music, naturally.
Here's what we're looking at:

• 7/3 - Blueberry Pickin' at Solebury Orchards. New Hope, PA
• 7/4 - Tyler State Park hiking & canoe rental. Bucks County, PA
• 7/5 - Family 4th of July BBQ. Bucks County, PA
  
• 7/9 - Billy Kelly Live in XM's Rumpus Room. DC (not confirmed yet)
  
• 7/11 - Recess Monkey Live at the New York Library, Children's Center. NYC
• 7/12 - 23 Skidoo Live at The Grindstone Coffeehouse. Philly.
• 7/15 - New Harry Potter Movie!
• 7/18-7/19 - Fishing Weekend with my oldest brother (girls will be wearing out on the trampoline and zip line recently installed in their backyard). Medford Lakes, NJ.
• 7/20-7/23 - Summer Camp at new school for the Bear.
  
• 7/24 - Lunch Money Live in XM's Rumpus Room. DC.
• 7/30-8/2 - Newport Folk Festival Road Trip (no kiddie stage, for some reason, but still the greatest lineup ever for a smallish festival - Avett Brothers, Josh Ritter, Elvis Perkins, Pete Seeger, Decemberists, Neko Case, Iron & Wine...amazing)
  

I know many families have crazier itineraries on an ongoing basis but we're decidedly NOT over schedulers so this list, for us, is kinda insane. Add to all this the Bear's Tues & Thurs evening Gymnastics classes (each 2 hrs long) and...Yowzers! I need a nap.
